BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a charge-pump circuitry, and more particularly, to a charge-pump circuitry which directly outputs a target voltage.

2. Description of the Related Art

It is common that a system comprises multiple ICs which provide different functions, and some IC can operate normally only under a voltage potential higher than the external voltage source provided to the system. Therefore, it is common that the system uses a charge-pump circuitry to pull up the voltage potential of the external voltage source to a voltage potential required by these special ICs for supporting the normal operation of these ICs.

FIG. 1A is a schematic circuit diagram of a conventional regulated charge-pump circuitry. Referring to FIG. 1A, the conventional regulated charge-pump circuitry is composed of a voltage multiplier module 100 and an operational amplifier 109. The voltage multiplier module 100 comprises dual port switches 101, 103, 105, 107 and capacitors 111, 113. Wherein, two terminals of the capacitor 111 electrically couple to the dual port switch 101 and the dual port switch 103, respectively. One terminal of the dual port switch 101, which is disposed opposite to the capacitor 111, receives an external voltage source VDD, and one terminal of the dual port switch 103 opposite to the capacitor 111 is grounded. One terminal of the dual port switch 105 electrically couples to the capacitor 111 and the dual port switch 101, and the other terminal of the dual port switch 105 electrically couples to the capacitor 113 and a voltage regulator 110 which is composed of the operational amplifier 109. One terminal of the dual port switch 107 electrically couples to the capacitor 111 and the dual port switch 103, and the other terminal of the dual port switch 107 receives the external voltage source VDD.

Referring to FIG. 1A, the “turn-on” cycles of the dual port switch 101, 103 are the same and not overlapped with the “turn-on” cycles of the dual port switch 105, 107. In addition, the “turn-on” cycle of the dual port switch 107 leads the “turn-on” cycle of the dual port switch 105 a certain period of time. When the dual port switches 101, 103 are turned on, the capacitor 111 is being charged to a potential of the external voltage source VDD. After the charge of the capacitor 111 is completed, the dual port switches 101, 103 are turned off. Then, the dual port switch 107 is turned on first, and the dual port switch 105 is turned on subsequently. Meanwhile, the voltage potential on a positive voltage terminal 13 of the capacitor 111 is two times of the potential of the external voltage source VDD, and the voltage is entirely charged to the capacitor 113.

Referring to FIG. 1A, an example is used for explanation hereinafter. It is assumed that the external voltage source VDD is 4V, and finally the target voltage output from the output terminal V_out is 5V. The voltage multiplier module in the conventional regulated charge-pump circuitry of FIG. 1A pulls up the external voltage source VDD from 4V to 8V first, and sends the pulled-up voltage to the voltage regulator 110, and a 5V voltage is output from the output terminal V_out via the voltage regulator 110. Therefore, in theory, the optimum efficiency of the conventional regulated charge-pump circuitry is 62.5% (i.e. 5V/8V=0.625). In other words, only 5V out of 8V is used, and the rest 3V is wasted.

FIG. 1B is a schematic circuit diagram of another conventional regulated charge-pump circuitry. Referring to the circuit diagram in FIG. 1B, a comparator 121 is used to replace the operational amplifier 109 in FIG. 1A. This conventional regulated charge-pump circuitry is characterized in that a control signal is output from an output terminal of the comparator 121 for controlling the dual port switches 101, 103, 105, 107. Its operating principle is similar to the conventional regulated charge-pump circuitry in FIG. 1A. More particularly, when the capacitor 111 has been charged to the voltage potential of the external voltage source VDD, the comparator 121 controls the dual port switches 101, 103 to turn off, and when the voltage potential on the output terminal V_out reaches the target voltage, the comparator 121 sends out a control signal to control the dual port switches 105, 107 to turn off. Thus, in theory, no power is wasted on the output terminal. However, when all dual port switches 101, 103, 105, 107 are turned off, there may be still some charges remaining inside the capacitor 111. Since these charges are totally isolated in the capacitor 111 and cannot not be discharged even when time passed by, a power loss is generated accordingly.

In summary, the conventional regulated charge-pump circuitry uses a voltage multiplier module to pull up an external voltage source first, and the pulled-up voltage is then sent to a voltage regulator for generating a target voltage.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram of a charge-pump circuitry according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The charge-pump circuitry of the present invention is composed of a voltage multiplier module 210 and a voltage difference generating circuitry 220. One terminal 25a in the input terminal 25 of the voltage multiplier module 210 receives an external voltage source VDD, and the other terminal is grounded. In addition, one terminal 23b in the output terminal 23 of the voltage multiplier module 210 electrically couples to the voltage difference generating circuitry 220, and the other terminal 23a electrically couples to a capacitor 201.

Referring to FIG. 2, the voltage multiplier module 210 generates a potential of the multiplied-voltage V₂ on an output terminal 23 according to the voltage potential of the external voltage source VDD, and the potential of the multiplied-voltage V₂ is a predetermined times of a potential difference between the external voltage source VDD and the ground voltage. In the present embodiment, the predetermined number of times is equal to 1. Moreover, the voltage difference generating circuitry 220 also generates a correcting voltage V₁, which is sent to the voltage multiplier module 210 through a terminal 23b of the output terminal 23. The voltage potential of the correcting voltage V₁ is the result voltage of subtracting the potential of the multiplied-voltage from a potential difference between the target voltage V_target and the ground voltage.

It is expected in the charge-pump circuitry of the present invention that the voltage multiplier module can generate a potential of multiplied-voltage V₂ on the output terminal 23 according to a potential difference between the external voltage source VDD and the ground voltage, and a voltage potential of the correcting voltage V₁ generated by the voltage difference generating circuitry 220 is added to it, so as to finally obtain a desired target voltage V_target.

FIG. 3 is a schematic circuit diagram of a voltage difference generating circuitry according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 3, the main purpose of the voltage difference generating circuitry 220 is to generate a correcting voltage V₁, and the voltage potential of the correcting voltage V₁ is a potential difference between the target voltage V_target and the multiplied-voltage V₂. It will be apparent to one of the ordinary skill in the art that such object also can be achieved by using other circuitries. An embodiment in FIG. 4 is used as an example of the present invention for explanation hereinafter. In FIG. 4, the operational amplifier is connected in a style of negative-feedback, wherein one terminal of the first resistor R1 receives the external voltage source VDD, and the other terminal of the first resistor R1 electrically couples to the negative signal input terminal of the operational amplifier 401. One terminal of the second resistor R2 electrically couples to the negative signal input terminal, and the other terminal is grounded. In addition, one terminal of the third resistor R3 electrically couples to the negative signal input terminal of the operational amplifier 401, the other terminal of the third resistor R3 electrically couples to an output terminal V₁ of the operational amplifier 401, and the output terminal V₁ electrically couples to the second input terminal 23 of the voltage multiplier module 210. In addition, the positive signal input terminal of the operational amplifier 401 receives a reference voltage V_ref whose potential is constant.

Referring to FIG. 3, assuming that the operational amplifier 401 is in ideal condition, the output voltage at the output terminal V₁ of the operational amplifier 401 is: $\begin{array}{cc}{V}_1=V_{\mathrm{ref}}\frac{R1R2+R2R3+R1R3}{R1R2}-\mathrm{VDD}\frac{R3}{R1}& \left(1\right)\end{array}$

Meanwhile, if the resistance of the first resistor R1 is designed to be equal to the resistance of the third resistor R3, the equation (1) becomes: $\begin{array}{cc}{V}_1=V_{\mathrm{ref}}\frac{2·R2+R1}{R2}-\mathrm{VDD}& \left(2\right)\end{array}$

If the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 are modified as V_ref(2 R2+R1)/R2=V_target, the equation (2) becomes:
V₁=V_{|arg s|}−VDD

Accordingly, the correcting voltage V₁ is obtained, and it is sent to the voltage multiplier module 210 in FIG. 2.

FIG. 4A is a schematic circuit diagram of a voltage multiplier module according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 4A, the voltage multiplier module 210 comprises a first switch circuit 310 and a second switch circuit 320. A 1^st terminal of the first switch circuit 310 is one terminal 25a in the input terminal 25 of the voltage multiplier module 210, and a 2^nd terminal of the first switch circuit 310 is the other terminal 25b in the input terminal 25 of the voltage multiplier module 210. In addition, a 3^rd terminal 31a of the first switch circuit 310 electrically couples to a 5^th terminal 35a of the second switch circuit 320, a 4^th terminal 33a of the first switch circuit 310 electrically couples to the 6^th terminal 37a of the second switch circuit 320. A capacitor 39 electrically couples to a conjunction node of the 3^rd terminal 31a and 4^th terminal 33a of the first switch circuit 310.

To be more specific, the first switch circuit 310 is mainly composed of a first dual port switch 31 and a second dual port switch 33. One terminal of the first dual port switch 31 electrically couples to one terminal 25a in the input terminal 25 of the voltage multiplier module 210, and the other terminal of the first dual port switch 31 electrically couples to the 3^rd terminal 31a of the first switch circuit 310. In addition, one terminal of the second dual port switch 33 electrically couples to the other terminal 25b in the input terminal 25 of the voltage multiplier module 210, and the other terminal of the second dual port switch 33 electrically couples to the 4^th terminal 33a of the first switch circuit 310. The “turn-on” and “turn-off” cycles of the first dual port switch 31 is synchronized with the “turn-on” and “turn-off” cycles of the second dual port switch 33 and referred as a first clock cycle herein. During the duty cycle of the first clock cycle, the first dual port switch 31 and the second dual port switch 33 are turned on.

Referring to FIG. 4A, the second switch circuit 320 further comprises a 7^th terminal and an 8^th terminal. The 7^th terminal and the 8^th terminal of the second switch circuit 320 are the output terminals 23 of the voltage multiplier module 210. Similarly, the second switch circuit 320 is mainly composed of a third dual port switch 35 and a fourth dual port switch 37. One terminal of the third dual port switch 35 electrically couples to the 5^th terminal 35a of the second switch circuit 320, and the other terminal of the third dual port switch 35 electrically couples to one terminal 23a in the output terminal 23 of the voltage multiplier module 210. In addition, one terminal of the fourth dual port switch 37 electrically couples to the 6^th terminal 37a of the second switch circuit 320, and the other terminal of the fourth dual port switch 37 electrically couples to the other terminal 23b in the output terminal 23 of the voltage multiplier module 210.

Wherein, the “turn-on” and “turn-off” cycles of the third dual port switch 35 is referred as a second clock cycle, and the “turn-on” and “turn-off” cycles of the fourth dual port switch 37 is referred as a third clock cycle. During the duty cycle of the second clock cycle and the third clock cycle, the third dual port switch 35 and the fourth dual port switch 37 are turned on. In the present embodiment, the duty cycle of the third clock cycle leads the duty cycle of the second clock cycle a certain period of time, and the duty cycle of the second clock cycle and the third clock cycle is not overlapped with the duty cycle of the first clock cycle. In other words, when the first dual port switch 31 and the second dual port switch 33 are turned on, the third dual port switch 35 and the fourth dual port switch 37 are turned off. In addition, when the fourth dual port switch 37 is turned on, the first dual port switch 31 and the second dual port switch 33 are turned off, and the third dual port switch 35 is turned on only after the fourth dual port switch 37 has been turned on for a certain period of time and before the fourth dual port switch 37 is turned off.

Referring to FIG. 4A, when the first dual port switch 31 and the second dual port switch 33 are turned on, the external voltage source VDD continuously charges to the capacitor 39 until the voltage difference between both terminals of the capacitor 39 is equal to the voltage difference between the external voltage source VDD and the ground voltage. Meanwhile, the capacitor 39 operates like another external voltage source VDD, and the potential difference between both terminals of the capacitor 39 is defined as a multiplied-voltage V₂. After the charge of the capacitor 39 is completed, the first dual port switch 31 and the second dual port switch 33 are turned off, then the fourth dual port switch 37 is turned on first for connecting one terminal 23b of the output terminal 23, and the third dual port switch 35 is subsequently turned on, such that the voltage difference generating circuitry can charge the capacitor 201. After the charge of the capacitor 201 is completed, the voltage potential on its both terminals to the ground is V₂+V₁=VDD+V₁=VDD+V_target−VDD, which is equal to the target voltage V_target.

FIG. 4B is a schematic circuit diagram of another voltage multiplier module according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 4B, the only difference in the present embodiment is that the second dual port switch 33 and the fourth dual port switch 37 are swapped with each other. To be more specific, one terminal of the fourth dual port switch 37 still electrically couples to one terminal 23b in the output terminal 23 of the voltage multiplier module 210, but the other terminal of the fourth dual port switch 37 electrically couples to the 4^th terminal 33a. In addition, one terminal of the dual port switch 33 still electrically couples to one terminal 25b in the input terminal 25 of the voltage multiplier module 210, but the other terminal of the second dual port switch 33 electrically couples to the 6^th terminal 37a. Besides this, all other connections and the operating principle of the entire voltage multiplier module 210 are the same as in the previous embodiment, thus its detail description is omitted herein.

The embodiments shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B above is a voltage multiplier module with a multiplier of 1. However, the voltage multiplier module of the present invention is not necessarily limited by it. The multiplier of the voltage multiplier module can be appropriately designed by the ordinary skill in the art according to different physical operating voltage requirements of different ICs.

In summary, the charge-pump circuitry of the present invention adds the multiplied-voltage to the correcting voltage for directly generating a desired target voltage without passing through the voltage regulator. Therefore, there is no electrical energy loss. If all the elements in the present invention are in ideal condition, the electrical energy used by it is up to 100%. Even in the physical environment, the efficiency of the present invention is still very high.

Although the invention has been described with reference to a particular embodiment thereof, it will be apparent to one of the ordinary skill in the art that modifications to the described embodiment may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention will be defined by the attached claims not by the above detailed description.
